Module 01: Introduction to Urban Ecology
In this activity, students will collect biological and physical data from various parts of a local habitat. Students will develop their understanding of ecosystems by hands on exploration. The important concepts are that: Organisms living in an ecosystem are linked together by their need for similar conditions and organisms in ecosystems interact in a variety of ways: symbiosis, competition, predator/prey, etc.

In this activity, students will return to the initial list of words they brainstormed about cities during the first lesson. After discussing the negative descriptors that were presented with regards to cities, students will view a PowerPoint presentation which highlights the essential role that cities play in creating a healthier and more sustainable environment. Students will then compare cities to organizational, social structures used by other organisms

Module 01: Introduction to Urban Ecology
Students will be provided with a framework for thinking about and planning for directed action based on the science of urban ecology. They will examine and discuss a case study that follows this framework, and will also have the opportunity to apply the framework in an example project, that of making the case for paper recycling in a fictional high school. This framework is a consistent feature of the curriculum, and is a part of every module. Each subsequent module will explore one aspect of the action planning framework in greater detail in conjunction with the understanding goals of the …

Module 04: Hazardous Waste
The purpose of this activity is to encourage students to develop a sense of duty and possibility that garbage and hazardous wastes can be successfully addressed, even if at a local scale. Students will learn about the Three-R’s (and composting), and then develop an action plan to deal with garbage at a local level, such as in the school offices or cafeteria, or through the local community or neighborhood. Students will explore and discuss traditional and innovative approaches to hazardous and material waste problems, learn to think about presenting information appropriately for their audience, and develop and action plan to …

Lesson Plan - Is The Earth's Climate Changing?, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 03: Energy & Climate Change
The main purpose of this lesson is to introduce the concept of climate change and to reexamine the earth as an energy system. The lesson begins by students watching short video clips with different perspectives on global climate change. The class then discusses whether or not they believe the climate is changing and what would count as evidence of climate change. Finally, the class analyzes temperature data from the past 120 years and then the past 1000 years that illustrates how the climate has become warmer over time. In the next lesson, students will explore why that climate change is …
